It's a challenge to write a climbing rhyme with meaning -- forcing depth into structure usually doesn't work for me. I'm still not sure if this works without coming off as either too dramatic or too trite, but I've just realized I've been fiddling with this for TWO HOURS now. Good grief.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

These are really fabulous!! I am so stunned to read them all on what is a very grey day over here. I'm doing one for Friday Poetry, posting tomorrow morning. Thanks for the challenge and the inspiring company!
